[TX] Eleven arrested in gambling bust

April 15, 2008

Eleven people were arrested in a high-stakes gambling bust in northwest Harris County.

Sheriff’s deputies executed a search warrant on west road near yearling this afternoon, following a two month undercover investigation.

Authorities say they found a room full of card tables and about 80 customers playing Texas Hold ‘em. And they weren’t playing ordinary poker matches. Thousands of dollars were at stake in the sophisticated operation.
